Owen Wilson breaks up with his baby’s mother

By Alexandra Heilbron on June 24, 2011 | 9 Comments


Owen Wilson, 42, has split from Jade Duell, saying he’s not ready to make a commitment, according to reports. Wilson and Duell have a five-month-old baby boy, Robert. Duell and Robert have apparently flown to New York to be with her family, while Wilson remains in Santa Monica. Owen and Jade, an air marshall, met last year when she sat next to him on a flight. Owen told Access Hollywood after the birth of his son: “You really do have this bond, this real connection with this thing that a month ago wasn’t even here It is strange… Their cries are like beautiful music.” Wilson seemed to be in good spirits at the premiere of his new movie, Cars 2, in Hollywood following the break up. Cars 2 opens today across North America.

    What do you mean, not ready to commit?? You had a child with this woman, That is a big commitment in itself!! Oh this bugs me the turn around in Hollywood, Make a baby soon after meeting and split up so soon after, Seems like it’s becoming the norm nowadays.

    I’m sure his kid will feel great about this. “Daddy, why are you and mommy not together?” “I wanted to sleep with other women because your moms just not enough”………Of course all this when the child is 10 and he is 52!!!! Still chasing 20 year old skirts.

    Well, at your age, when will you be ready?? Many people would give almost anything, to have the wondrous treasure(opportunity) to have a Family!! Poor baby when he learns Why his own father Didn’t want to be with him! But Mr. Wilson sure �committed�� to go to bed with her! It wasn’t all his fault; she Didnt have to go to bed with him in the 1st place. Their baby is a Human Being too and he has Feelings too!!

    not ready to commit? Then why did he have a baby with her? He’s such a jerk

    No one ever questions the motives of these women. How blind. He probably didn’t want to commit financially to her either, but will.

    Did any of you morons think that she might be a raving lunatic and he wants out before it’s too late? Or she poked holes in the condom to get at his money? There is so much you don’t know and yet you all assume she is right and he is a dick, grow up and stop judging so quick you idiots.

    Spanky, that’s harsh. But yeah people only think one sided. Just cause she is an air marshall doesn’t mean she is a princess. But also to play devils advocate, Wilson thought his life was crap a few years ago and was going nowhere and tried to commit suicide…well dude, you have something to live for now!! Best smarten up, you have a kid and kids need stability.
